Art As a Second Career

Commented Sep 03, 2009 at 19:43:41 in Style

“I just love whenever celebrities jump over to another field of art or start marketing a product and start selling their stuff for big bucks. Gee I wonder why - could it be because they have a celebrity status. Carol honey - in the real world your work would maybe pass for Saturday afternoon craft fair art. There are thousands of highly talented artists who've toiled for decades that are not making it simply because they don't have the access that you do. "Spending afternoons with Eric Fischl" - are you kidding me? So don't fool yourself - and most importantly - don't think you're fooling us either. Nothing personal - but let's get real.”

“Really. I wonder what criteria is necessary for Huffpo to allow themselves to be an opportunity for free nation-wide self promotion? Perhaps if I got a second career as a hooker for a New York guv I could detail my career highlights and put up photos of my best work? Would I have to be a sell-ebrity first?”

“I've definitely seen much better work by struggling artists on deviantart. This is akin to famous/infamous people getting big book deals to write novels. Nothing against them personally, but they have an advantage that someone obscure does not. Another culprit in this field of someone who 'excels' in one department exploiting the artistic side of things is Jane Seymour. Nothing against these women personally, they're good at what they're known for, but let's be honest here...they're gadflies.”

“The only one with bad logic is you. Your argument falls apart almost immediately with your poor choice of analogy. Unlike Baldwin - you are not a great thinker.”

“Why are you bashing the unions and not the criminal executives who are walking away with millions. Why should one person be paid millions of dollars - but if a blue color worker makes 50, 60 or even 80K a year thats so horrible. Your logic is a bit twisted. Union workers do just that WORK - while executives are flying around in private jets. Hello”
